Remember not to be too harsh...

Thanks to this, Canada's going to get their cotton swabs looked at for relabeling.

I'm wondering how someone couldn't notice that the Q-tip was going inside their ear too much . That has really got to suck for the guy, dying to a Q-tip .

Oh.

Huh. ... Considering how far they fit into my ear,

Then again, the sheer amount of wax I get out of them kind of requires it

Same here. I used it to clean out my ears everyday.

I use this weird spray cleaner, which melts wax. Then you just have to jump so that it falls out

...Yeah, I use a facecloth and my little fingers.

I hate Q-Tips. They never work with me.

Forget those. My ear wax turns to stone.

It takes steel tweezers to yank the boulders out. Yes. Boulders. They also prevent my eardrums from being punctured. Or sound from reaching them (at times.) Or even fluid from escaping my eardrum.

So, yeah.

I have to wonder if you could really stick something so far into your ear that you damage it without A) feeling anything and B) realizing "hey, I probably shouldn't be sticking things this far in my ear".

Ouch...

I don't use Q-tips. They just don't seem to work for me.

I can't hear through my right ear right now because I accidentally pushed wax farther into my ear. The doctor said I should be able to hear through it again soon though

I clicked the article expecting to read the guy pierced his brain or something...


I rarely used Q-tips, but when I don't usually go that far in...

I always wear a headset when I'm using the computer, even if I'm not listening to anything. Now, according to some statistics I read, wearing earphones for one hour causes the amount of bacteria in the ear to increase by 700%... ... ...so I've usually got to scratch my ear with something.

Q-tip! Scratch several times a day!*

*) May lead to death

I don't use Q-tips, ever, because I was always afraid of something like that happening. Call me paranoid, but it looks like my fears weren't totally unfounded! Surprisingly enough, I remember overhearing a conversation on this very subject in school today, wonder if they saw this article.

I remember earing somewhere that you shouldn't put anything smaller than your elbow in your ear... but you can't fit something as big as you elbow in your ear.
